I have made the experience that when an am*zon link contains more than just the ASIN and/or when it is the am*zon site on another tld than the visitor is located, then am*zon redirects you without asking to what it thinks are similar items instead. Here I provide you, just in case, with links of which at least one may work:
Thank you! They don’t deliver the particular one you linked to the US but I found a similar one. And thanks for the info about the links @CommunityUser5
Hi. You mention that the flow sensor is position dependent. Do you mean like right side up or flow direction dependent? I.e. in the return side it needs to be reversed?
TIA
Hi DougN,
I meant that you could spin the sensor around the axle of flow.
Before you disassemble it from the outgoing side mark the top.
(Took me a while to figure it out… )
It sounds like you have a solid plan for your spindle setup and cooling system, Brian! Similar to planning with a height difference chart, where precise measurements are key to ensuring everything aligns, your focus on the lift capacity, tubing length, and coolant connections shows great attention to detail.
While the Vevor CW3000 claims a 10-meter lift capacity, your approach of planning for a realistic 1.5 meters makes sense—just like making adjustments based on actual height differences. Matching the tubing to the spindle’s coolant connections and using quality automotive antifreeze mix will help ensure smooth operation, much like ensuring proper alignment on a height chart to avoid gaps. Your setup should run efficiently with this thoughtful consideration!
…then you have clear directions (as long you do not try to use it in a room without gravity).
“Arrow needs to show in direction of flow and has to go to the bottom side”
I think I found it more obvious to have the arrow on the top and failed in my first attempt.
do you find that a 1.5 KW spindle develops adequate power for your application? From the your post it sounds like it has more than enough. I’m in the process of upgrading my router table, and instead of a big noisey 3 hp router, i’m going to use a water-cooled spindle. The inital motivation was to have a remote speed control that actually performed, but secondarily going to water-cooling dramatically reduced the noise levels. I was even considering a 3 KW spindle, but this is untrodden ground for me, so this may be overkill. I would appreciate any thoughts that you may have
Powerwise for CNC use and using 1/4 / 6mm bits then the 1.5kw is fine.
I am just about to embark on a router table build and are having the same thought as you
The negative with 1.5kw is the collet size being limited to 8mm. I haven’t bottomed out if a 3kw with a larger body size 80mm i think enables you to fit a 1/2” shaft cutter.
At the moment my currant thought for a router table set up is a Jessem router lift and 3kw motor, I have had a demo of one by a dealer and the noise level is fine nothing like a router.
A 1.5kw would certainly be ok for rounding over and light duty stuff I would think of it as a trim router but for template copy work or serious rebate I would and will go for a 3kw
That’s what I was thinking also. Having the additional power is a benefit, even when not needed. I had not considered the collet-size issue, but thats definitely an important consideration, because I’ll need to be able run 1/2”-shank bits. The cost-difference is minimal. Going larger than 2.2 Kw requires a 240V feed, but thats no big deal either.
